Her original technique and way of thinking about art, translated into a unique atmosphere and depth in her paintings. All of this, however, was made possible by the wider cultural changes that took place in both the artistic and social spheres. Krakow, Munich and, above all, Paris, were places of endless discussions about art, into which the question of women's emancipation was becoming more and more prominent. The guided tour will look at the milieu in which Olga Boznańska lived and worked, but also at the unique nature of her work.

Ensor / Wojtkiewicz confronts the works of two significant artists from the turn of the nineteenth and the twentieth century. It explores themes of the masquerade, the theatre, the circus, dreams, eroticism and death. Known for their penchant for fantasy, irony and the grotesque, the two painters were deeply rooted in their respective cultures and art circles: the modernist milieus of the Young Belgium and the Young Poland. Ensor evoked the traditions of Dutch art, with its bawdy humour, defiance and didacticism, of folk theater troupes and of the animated street carnivals of Flanders. Wojtkiewicz, submerged in a world of fairytales and dreamlike visions, drew from phenomena such as the cabaret, the comedy theatre Zielony Balonik and Kraków's folk nativity scenes (szopka).
